Gum Health Before Adult Orthodontic Treatment
Because gum disease and recession are commoner in adults, a periodontal check is the necessary first step. Straightening teeth through inflamed or receding tissue risks accelerating bone loss, so Finegand orthodontists will want evidence your gums are healthy before starting.
Given stable gums, orthodontics proceeds normally; the ongoing requirement is diligent cleaning throughout, whether working around brackets or brushing before every tray reinsertion.
How Adults Straighten Their Teeth in Finegand
Clear aligners are the default request from adults in Finegand who want treatment nobody notices. Removable and discreet, they reward consistent wear and suit mild-to-moderate cases.
Ceramic braces use tooth-coloured brackets that blend in while giving the continuous control of fixed treatment — a strong option for adults with moderate to complex cases who aren't ideal aligner candidates.
Lingual braces sit behind the teeth and are invisible from the front — the most discreet fixed option, especially valued by adults in patient-facing or media roles, at higher cost and with a short speech adjustment.
Metal fixed braces are the budget workhorse for demanding adult cases; since the NHS rarely funds adults, they're the cheapest fixed route privately in Finegand.
